Kazuma was dismayed and shook at the raw strength of the queen ant. A single swing of her limb shattered the thralls, who had enough strength and endurance to face the royal guard ants head-on in a face-off.This scene baffled and left Kazuma stunned while he hovered above Zoukar. He glanced at him to capture his reaction to this act that occurred against his powerful thralls. However, contrary to what he expected, he witnessed something entirely different.Zoukar had an inscrutable grin on his face as he watched his soldiers get smashed by the queen ant. He rubbed his chin and said in a slight voice, "Hmm, so she certainly had the strength to define her position in this dungeon. Her elegance and arrogance were backed by this strength; that must be why no one was ready to accept this quest!"Kazuma frowned and his brow twitched as he heard this specific statement from Zoukar. He got to know about the quest that Zoukar accepted from someone. Although Kazuma didn't know who and when Zou
Zoukar smirked when he noticed his soldiers surrounding the queen ant. Her dismayed and disturbing behavior was exciting for him. He stumped his staff again on the floor and cast something that shrouded him in intense dark mana.Those dark shadows creeping and mixing over the flaming aura shrouding Zoukar seemed more daunting than before. His figure was astounding and intimidating to even his allies.Although he had only one living ally among his undead supporters, even Kazuma felt haunted by that fact. Watching Zoukar use more and more new spells along with his elemental stone, he felt a new world before him.He gazed at the full show without missing even a slight glance and also kept his distance from Zoukar, who was using more threatening spells that even had the capability to destroy his own loyal allies.When Zoukar cast the new spell around him, the queen ant became even more restless than before. She began throwing tantrums and lashed out at the undead surrounding her. She thre
Kazuma shuddered at the scene before him. The flesh melting from the living queen ant could tremble anyone with a slight glance. Her screams shivered the small creature Kazuma inhabited since the view was torturous and horrific.His expressions become pale from the agony-filled noise resounding in the whole chamber. The chilled sweat trickled down his spine, and his whole body also became stunned while hovering above them.He glanced back at Zoukar to notice his reaction to the anguish the queen ant felt. According to his expectation, he witnessed Zoukar chuckling and being delighted by the suffering and torment the queen ant advertised.Not only that, but Zoukar ordered his leftover undead to resume their attack on the queen rather than backing off from the effect of the spell. He had no emotions regarding his soldiers or anything.Although the undead also took a toll due to the spell. Even their bones and flesh decayed and fell from the death aura, which even halted most of their mo
Kazuma swiveled around to search for the rewards, but there was nothing in sight before him. He was bewildered and dismayed at seeing nothing in his vision to be called rewards after conquering the dungeon.He was assuming the rewards would appear similar to games or comics he often used to play or read back on earth, and for this reason, he was eager to watch something similar appear before him in reality.However, there was nothing like that in his vision. More likely, it would be better to say the queen ant chamber was shrouded in an eerie silence after the douse of the flames on the queen ant. Only some slight giggles could be heard from Zoukar.When the confusion and rumblings in Kazuma’s head are heightened a lot, he then turns towards Zoukar for answers since only he can state where and how the reward would appear in the dungeon.Zoukar, on the other hand, was in his reverie beside the queen ant’s corpse, as if scrutinizing and analyzing it with precision. This baffled Kazuma e
Kazuma shifted his attention onto Zoukar to find whatever he was going to pull from his robe. The last time Zoukar shuffled a mess of his robe to reveal the elemental stone, hence the curiosity for another such artifact was intense.Kazuma concentrated on Zoukar’s actions and waited patiently, since last time it took him a long time to search for the elemental stone from his robe. To his surprise, Zoukar found his way very quickly this time.Zoukar chortled and exclaimed, "Haha! Now it's time for us to retreat from this fucking trashbin!" He took out a small pouch about the size of a pocket and chuckled. His expressions certainly pointed to that pouch as something special.Kazuma frowned and sighed with disappointment after a wide gaze at the pouch. He was eager to watch another amazing artifact, however, Zoukar advertised a small leather pouch that seemed somewhat worn out from continuous use.He pondered with a scowl, "What the hell? This bastard of a mage is displaying that worn an
While Kazuma was escaping the dungeon along with Zoukar, he witnessed many corpses of ants lying around in a terrible state. Aside from the ones he scorched with his fireball, the rest were either smashed or mixed into minced meat.Such scenarios before Kazuma perplexed him. He could only imagine how Zoukar would've smashed so many ants by himself, given that he was capable of thrashing even the queen ant and her royal guards.It was obvious Zoukar did not need Kazuma to conquer this dungeon, but he only used the divine body he found in this dungeon to preserve his mana and decrease the time he may have to spend in this dungeon.Zoukar’s way of doing things was certain and most likely planned, even though he seemed like some deranged and frenetic person. He had one of the best mindsets and strategies in his head, backed up by many magical spells.From the time Kazuma spent with Zoukar, he realized this mage had enough to face any opponent, whether humongous in the constitution or huge
After a few more steps, Kazuma and Zoukar saw a bright gleam shining through a small hole. This light suddenly delighted them since it was certain that they had found the exit from this dungeon. Their never-ending night was about to reach its conclusion.Zoukar and Kazuma rushed to the exit and, at last, leaped out of the dungeon. The sudden gleam enshrouded their vision and almost made them blind since they spent a lot of time in darkness, and this sudden shine would strike their eyes.Kazuma scrunched his eyes and closed them to adjust his vision for these new surroundings. He even tried to shield his eyes with his arms, but to his disappointment, they were not big enough to support him.Even then, after a few moments, he opened his eyes and found them adapted to the flash before him. The moment his vision seemed crystal clear, he was astonished by the scene before him and even baffled to some extent.Kazuma found him and Zoukar in a green, dark forest with a thick canopy of leaves
Kazuma directed the path to Zoukar towards the watery sound he heard a while ago. He hovered above the surface and flew all the way while concentrating on the sound ahead. The relieved expression on his face was evident since now Zoukar may think Kazuma was a worthwhile profit for him.Both of them marched forward while being cautious since they could sense some slight presence of someone around peering at them. Although none of them could feel any threat from this being, they still moved alarmed.After a few more steps, the fluid-moving sound enhanced and Kazuma's eyes widen from the picturesque scenario before his eyes. Nature's beauty captivated him since he witnessed such a scene after a long time surviving in the pitched black dungeon.There was a small water stream glittering on the surface due to sunshine falling and reflecting back from its crystal clear water. Kazuma had never seen such a water source in his life while living back on earth.This sort of clear water source cou
